I have a very serious buyer looking for a 428 69. Has to be xr7 hardtop with AT. Bonus points if it is dark green with black vinyl top and black leather. NO PROJECTS!!! This is an anniversary present for a lady who had one in high school. 503-463-1130!!!
What about this one?

Actually… That is the one he was about to pull the trigger on until I pointed out about 20 areas of concern. Not a terrible car but for the money one would expect exhaust with a cross over, wheels that did not rub, leather, correct radio and a lot more detail to attention. The good ones sell in 30 days or less, usually takes me less than 10 days to sell one and they have had that one for the better part of a year.
During my search I stumbled upon this one.

Pretty much everything from the list but 4 speed.

Go to 7:38 in the video. Wants “over $50 grand for it.” Light green, 428 auto, A/C, 30k miles apparently
Thank you! I forgot all about that one and I just recently watched that video. The Ram Air, smog and low miles makes this one worth $20k more than the red one in my opinion.
Seemed like a good match now to just get a hold of the guy
Don, Did Brian sell his ‘Q’ Cat?..Old one, but I think it fits the definition of what your customer is looking for.

Yes that one is gone. It is in my area now, not sure if the owner is interested in letting it go or not.
I have a bone-stock Q Code driveline (carb to pan, radiator to rear axel) date-coded original including smog if anyone finds a car for Don that has had it’s engine robbed.
If you run into him let him know?
Don,
Saw them this past weekend, no interest in selling at this time.
